    Just wait for July 1st! Once millions of people find their apps not working anymore and their porn gone there’s no way going back for Reddit.

        Then they’ll be disappointed becaus some instances has a no porn policy (because of lack of mod tools).

        Personally I can do with no porn. There’s lemmynsfw and other sites I can visit if ever I get the urge.

          I’d already given up on reddit for porn. There’s only so much that watching a single girl post softcore ads for her onlyfans will do for you.

        Lemmy NSFW is mostly just full of accounts posting non-NSFW images of celebrities in a way that looks like they are all run by the same person. Other than that it’s basically dead.

          …You’re just viewing it without an account; instances won’t show nsfw without one.

          It’s very active already

            Signed up an account and took a look around.

            There’s some NSFW content now but it’s not all that different from what I described. Every community I look at is lucky to have 5 posts and many of them have all been created recently.

              I don’t have a horse in this race, but have you seen any of Reddit’s NSFW subs? Most posts are by bots.

              What…? The main comms have hundreds of posts and thousands of subscribers already despite the instance being created just over 2 weeks ago

                  They’re posted about when you’d expect in hot?

                    Lets just use your own screenshot for a second.

                    Do you think all the posts in it that are practically all posted at the same time (16-17 hours ago) is normal, organic user behavior to you?
